Two Loons For Tea

Two Loons for Tea is a duo consisting of singer Sarah Scott and instrumentalist Jonathan Kochmer. The duo came together when Switzerland-born Kochmer moved to Seattle after spending years studying biostatistics and evolutionary biology. Scott, who was originally from San Francisco, moved to Washington after a lifetime filled with music due to her parents' ties to the California rock scene. After arriving in Seattle, the two met through a mutual friend and began performing Kochmer's original material while starting to write with one another. After performing together in various outfits throughout the '90s, the two eventually became Two Loons for Tea in 1999 and continued to perpetuate their working relationship. Their first album was an eponymous release in 2001, mostly made up of material they had been working on for years. The second album, 2002's Looking for Landmarks, was more immediate and was the result of their writing on the road while promoting the first album. ~ Bradley Torreano, Rovi

The third album from these genius musical dream-weavers has become a frequent sound track to my life.

In this genre-defying CD, every track is phenomenal a

Brilliant music for brilliant minds. The Two Loons think about every aspect of the sound from what they sing, play, produce to how it gets to the media the listener will hear. The albums are rich, unique and a 'must listen' for any audiophile.

Love their song, "Blood For Sugar"; it has a kind of surreal and beautiful sound. Two Loons For Tea's sound on this song reminds me of some material by Morcheeba &amp; Massive Attack, which makes me feel deprived & rueful these sorts of bands are not recognized for their talent & uniqueness. It's too bad that more often than not hugely talented musicians are commonly unknown by most people and have to struggle trying to "make it big", let alone eke out a living, and through no fault of their own
